Today i washed my car and then installed the Z32 fuel filter.it was pretty easy to do, this is my 2nd mod to the engine bay. first was the K&N drop in filter upgrade.But i dont know if i got the right filters for it.... it seemed really bigger than my stock s14 filters... and the flat side of the filter is UP side right?

ITs clean, IMO not as clean. Everytime i detail my engine, I take out some parts and clean them one by one. Polish shiny parts, lexol the plastic parts.

I believe that is an S14, what I generally look for when distinguishing, is the engine bay fuse box; they are different for the S13 and S14.

Also Bomex, I do that too, I’ll take things inside the house and thoroughly clean and polish them. Also is Lexol better than Plexus? I've been using Plexus and have a lot left and it’s about $9 per can so I don’t want to waste it. So is it worth converting to Lexol if its better?

Atomic-S14, when you pulled out your AIV system did your idle get crappy? Also that BOX does not look like the 300ZX box, but the actual product (fuel filter) looks to be a 300ZX filter. Your box should say 16400-Q0805 and mention use for a 300ZX VG, no where should it mention KA like yours does.
